Insert Lock Kit for Wooden Gates, Stainless Hook Lock with Handles and 80mm Cylinder

This is a complete insert lock kit for timber gates: a mortice lock with a stainless steel mechanism that fits inside the gate stile, satin stainless lever handles on long roses, an 80mm euro cylinder with keys, and a keep for the post. The lock throws a solid stainless hook as well as a self-latching latch bolt, so the gate is held to the post and cannot be prised apart. It is made for wooden gates with a profile at least 85mm deep, and the kit gives you everything needed for one gate in one order. The price shown is for one complete kit.

Why use this kit

Hook bolt security. A stainless hook with a 33mm throw locks into the keep and grips it, so the gate cannot be levered away from the post, which is the usual way to force a gate.

Latches every time. The self-latching latch bolt catches as the gate closes and can also be key-locked. It changes over for left or right-hand gates and adjusts by up to 20mm without taking the lock out.

Built for outdoors. The mechanism, hook, faceplate and latch bolt are stainless steel, and a cover plate keeps dirt out of the mechanism, so it keeps working on exposed garden and driveway gates.

Complete kit. Lock, lever handles and roses, 80mm euro cylinder with keys, and keep, all matched to each other.

Where it is used

Solid timber side gates, driveway pedestrian gates, garden gates and courtyard gates at homes and estates, and timber gates at commercial premises, where a neat, hidden lock with a key is wanted.

Choosing the right option

Choose this kit for a timber gate with a stile at least 85mm deep when you want a hidden lock with handles and a key, all in one order. If you already have handles and a euro cylinder, the lock-only version is the cheaper choice. For a gate that only needs latching, a Suffolk latch is simpler; for a padlock, add a hasp and staple.

Fitting and care

Mark the lock position on the gate stile, cut the mortice for the lock case and drill the holes for the handle spindle and cylinder at 92mm centres and 60mm backset. Fit the lock, the cylinder, handles and roses, then fit the keep to the post so the hook and latch bolt engage fully. Set the latch bolt with its adjustment. Wipe the faceplate clean and put a little graphite in the cylinder once a year.
